What does duality of Cannabis healing mean?
One of the mysteries of Cannabis medicine
is the hypothesis of dual-healing-purpose. This two-fold healing ability of
Cannabis and specifically THC ensures, for example, that Cannabis can both
increase and decrease blood pressure in different individuals. It can induce
clotting of the blood when needed, and it can also thin blood out. It can both
stimulate and suppress the appetite. It can both block and unblock receptors. Cannabis
can act as both an agonist as well as an antagonist of any cannabinoid
receptor. These are things that no other medicine can do. [14] (Wilson RI, 2001) Another good example of the duality
of Cannabis medicine is how the Cannabinoid CBD is able to regulate the
psychedelic effects of the activity of THC.
